Metric

A metric is a lens or camera sensor image quality performance characteristic selected for analysis on DxOMark. There are three Metrics for scoring camera sensors (Color Depth, Dynamic Range, Low-Light ISO), and five Metrics for scoring lenses (Resolution, Distortion, Vignetting, Transmission, Chromatic Aberration).
